History:Tom Ford for Men was claimed to be the first to use cypriol: "that slightly dirty, sensual, sexy smell...It's not the same as natural musk used to be, but it has a bit of something that some people would think slightly dirty...I think it's warm and sensual." And yet Xeryus, a floral woody semi-oriental masculine by Givenchy, developed by Firmenich, launched in 1986!

The Egyptians used Cyperus papyrus, a close relative of Cypriol, to make papyrus, Egyptian paper. They also used cypriol to make cloth and fragrances.
